Ilias Apalodimas 63ae7949e9 net: socionext: Use descriptor info instead of MMIO reads on Rx
MMIO reads for remaining packets in queue occur (at least)twice per
invocation of netsec_process_rx(). We can use the packet descriptor to
identify if it's owned by the hardware and break out, avoiding the more
expensive MMIO read operations. This has a ~2% increase on the pps of the
Rx path when tested with 64byte packets

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
